Question:medium
A liquid drop splits into \(729\) identical spherical drops. If \(E\) is the original energy and \(U\) is the total resulting energy , then \(E/U = 1/x\). The value of \(x\) is.
A liquid drop splits into \(729\) identical spherical drops. If \(E\) is the original energy and \(U\) is the total resulting energy , then \(E/U = 1/x\). The value of \(x\) is.
Show Hint
When a drop splits, surface energy increases by a factor of $n^{1/3}$.

A pitot tube connected to a U-tube mercury manometer measures the speed of air flowing in the wind tunnel as shown in the figure below. The density of air is 1.23 kg m\(^{-3}\) while the density of water is 1000 kg m\(^{-3}\). For the manometer reading of \( h = 30 \) mm of mercury, the speed of air in the wind tunnel is _________ m s\(^{-1}\) (rounded off to 1 decimal place).
